Very interesting Kym, thanks for sharing that. Whilst we all know what you can do with a camera to improve a scene, you don't expect it to affect what you think of a news story. Watching that was more like, duh for me, rather than wow. Of course an image can convey a thousand words but what thousand words is up to the photographer and how that photographer interacts with their surroundings.

Playing for the cameras to gain attention for whatever cause it may be isn't new, however the ethics behind the way the photojournalist present the images is questionable to say the least. Money and editorial pressure often prevail over photographic integrity. This just reinforces that you shouldn't always believe what you see !. Thanks for sharing this interesting video.

A wise person once warned me that, in regard to news media and photojournalism, I should believe NONE of what I read and only HALF of what I see. This piece only serves to show that journalism, in all its forms, has become more about making a story than reporting one. It's the butterfly effect on steroids in conflict situations, isn't it?
